Alone, they are driven vigilantes. Together they are a force to be reckoned with. Witness the beginnings of the Birds of Prey team, as Oracle (the former Batgirl, Barbara Gordon) teams up with ex-Justice Leaguer Black Canary and other female heroes of the DC Universe in globetrotting adventures in espionage. Black Canary goes undercover to expose the truth behind a corporate conspiracy. Oracle must send in reinforcements, but will this save Black Canary or doom her? Plus, the Birds of Prey invade Santa Prisca to stop a slavery ring while helping to overthrow the local government. Collected for the first time in chronological order: BLACK CANARY/ORACLE: BIRDS OF PREY #1, SHOWCASE โ96 #3, BIRDS OF PREY: MANHUNT #1-4, BIRDS OF PREY: REVOLUTION #1, BIRDS OF PREY: WOLVES #1 and BIRDS OF PREY: BATGIRL #1. Review: A surprise like for me - I couldn't predict how each chapter was going to go which kept me interested the whole time. The twist at the end of the last issue makes me want to read volume two. If your a fan of Chuck Dixon's run on robin, nightwing, and batman you will like this. Review: Great stuff - Chuck Dixon writing the Bat family in the 90s was a sight to behold, Birds of Prey is no exception, the stories in this graphic are really fun, the art is excellent and I really enjoyed the coloring throughout, this stuff is a step above a lot of what was coming out during that time.

Outstanding Adventure
Batgirl, Blsck Canary and even Catwomen. What a team and what fun. Joker might have placed Barbara Gordon in a wheel chair, but he didn't stop her smarts.

Solid Start
Surpisingly good. Many comic fans talk about Gail Simone as the first and last word for the Birds of Prey, but these stories: One-shots, a mini-series, oversized graphic novel length books, are actually quite good. Most of the stories are focused on Barbara Gordon as Oracle teaming up and providing support for the Black Canary, who was dealing with teh death of teh Green Arrow and finding herself. The stories have good action, decent mysteries, and really more than a few surprises. There's an interesting dynamic and relationship between Black Canary and Oracle, even though Oracle knows who Black Canary is but not vice versa. The weakest story in here is the mini-series in which Black Canary teams up with Huntress and Catwoman and even that's not bad, although the idea that this adventure primarily caused by a man standing them up and the villains are bit unengaging. Still, it's a decent mini-series. Overall, there's a lot of really rubbish comics from this era. This isn't one of them. It's intriguing, it lays the groundwork for things to come and it's well-worth reading.

Reading could not be any sexier
I believe it's true,reading the"Birds of Prey" is not just about the three awesomest girls on the planet playing solo or teaming up,it's just that reading could not be any sexier,really;Being accompanied by these three beauties will make your reading far more exciting.Full throttle action in a full "keep up with them if you can" pack. LOVE IT WITH THE WORKS.
